Tentang Buku yang Membuatkan Orang Tak Tidur Lena...

Saturday was one fine day, for me. The night before, I waited for Mr Husband’s arrival from Penang and he rang the bell at around 2 in the morning. Before she went to sleep, I reminded Nor to knock on the door the next morning if it seems like Amin and I haven’t wake up.
So that night (or rather morning), we had less than 3 hours sleep. I woke up to the text sent by my house mate saying “ It’s time to wake up, muggles!”. Haha. We were very excited, so please don’t hate our silliness.
Anyway, after I had a quick shower I woke hubby up. I was like nagging him on how late it was and looking at the rate we were going, surely I’d not be in time to get the goodie bag and stuff. Hubby said that he was sure by the time he finished showering, I won’t finish getting dress and all. I was glad to prove how wrong he was.. Boo hoo!
Nor, who didn’t pre-booked the HP book went out at least 10 minutes earlier than us – which was around 6.30am - in her eagerness to line up at Carrefour to get the much awaited book.
I, on the other hand couldn’t stop pulling long face at hubby cause I wanted to be there as early as possible. Heck! I wanted to be the first in line to lay my hands on the book!
Nevertheless, I was the 10th person getting in line, and I guess it wasn’t that bad after all. Looking around and being all alert, I couldn’t stop moaning and; jumping up and down once I saw the workers pushing the trolley containing the Harry Potter goodie bags. Hubby was all smiles when he saw how excited I was. Since this was his second time, I guess he already get used to how silly I’d get when Harry Potter is finally there!
After I got the book, we proceeded to go for a checkup – good news for us. J And then, we went to have our HUGE breakfast, before hurrying back home so I could start on the book.
Nonetheless, I’d have to admit that this time it took me a much longer time to finish the book. It was almost 4 days before I got to the end of it as I couldn’t concentrate on the book when hubby was around. He said “ Now I know I come first before Harry Potter”. Aha..Of coz la dear. ;-p
I’d write about the book when I have the time and mood as I don’t want to rush into it and do it injustice.
But all I could say for now is that there are a few things that disappoint me, such as finding out that Dumbledore were once flawed. (I guess I just wanted him to be all noble even when he was still a child).
However, I think that the overall plots are well thought of and quite strong. That’s all I’m saying for now peeps!
